    Update on Ranger,
    We have collected 225$ towards The Camper Fund for Ranger.He has found a Camper for $600.00. That's pretty cheap as Campers go. It's an old one but will satisfy the VA doctors and Ranger can have the Stent put in his Heart and the blood can flow an keep him alive.

    I can't express how badly we need your help gathering the rest of the money needed to purchase the Camper. This is Life and Death. The longer he waits the weaker he becomes. When your weak it's hard to get out and hustle up $.

    Ranger is a Trades Person, he buys and sells antiques, precious stones ect. He is not able to attend the sales due to his health issues and thereby is unable to make money to buy the Camper himself. He needs our help.

    Let's get thoes donations coming back in and get Ranger and Rita some housing. He would do it for us if he was able and will when he is. We can not turn our backs on our brother and sister. They are old and there is not much help available out there so we have to help where we can, it could be you in that position and may be someday.

    We could make a lifesaving change for two ppl with just a little cash. I dont have much but I gave what I had, what I could. I survived, it hardly even hurt at all :) I gave it weeks ago and I dont even miss it one little bit, it made me happy that I did help.

    I am pleading with you to find it in your heart to send some rescue cash for Ranger and Rita. You'll get BIG Karma points for helping.

    Chris,

    We are still at the old homestead here in Ashlandia. Looks like that will be the case until the housing market rebounds and then we can put our place back on the market.

    Peace

    I'm sorry that you cant move forward with your plans Danny. Who knows if things will ever regain their momentum.

    All of Market St got big bonuses for ruining the country.. job well done.. they pat each other on the back and continue to rip us off and we struggle to balance our world. Everything is going up except our checks ( if we get one).

    Social Security has not had an increase in 2 yrs but Obama felt that congress needed a raise instead so we do without so the rich fat cats can have more, more?!? they have so much of it now they could never spent it all in 10 lifetimes.

    When they do give a little bit to charities they get kickbacks plus tax credit for the donation.. so in essence they are giving themselves money and getting money back.. what a racket.

    Why couldnt I have been born rich instead of so damn goodlooking.. lol

    :seeya:Oh Hi Chris,
    What's up with you these days, any good news. It's kinda quite in here while Kenny is away.
    I sure hope we can get the donations for Ranger going strong. I havent had any mail for two weeks. It doesnt look promising. I hope Ranger can hold on till we get some more ppl contributing.
    It's tough getting old and not in good health and you can lose hope when you see none on the horizon. I would hope that if I was in need and on the edge that more ppl would show up and help me out.
    I know it's tough these days but it's always been tough, nothing comes easy and you do have to get up and do for yourself but when you cant see bc of cateracs and your blood is not flowing through your heart, it's not as simple as getting up.

    I seem to be rambling here, I have so much on my mind lately. I'm not directing any of this AT you Chris, I'm just talkin' ya know.

    well I'll keep trying, it's all I can do from here.

    My computer won't let me use the red xs. Maybe the owner would let R&R move in and make payments so he could get started on his health care? Seems like more of the Rainbow family would have responded.

    Hi Scratcho,
    I would have thought that more would have volenteed themselves in all kinds of ways. Ranger has been in the forums for 5 yrs or so. He's been with Good Earth 40 yrs or more.

    Ppl know he is Real, ppl know me too and know I wouldnt take part in anything underhanded. I cant understand how ppl can just look the other way. It keeps me up at nights worrying Ranger will die before we can get the Camper. He can barely see with the cateracs and he can get them removed bc his heart needs a Stent, they wont do the Heart surgery bc he cannot stand up in the Van is is in. His head would be lower then his heart crawling in and out of the van and would cause prressure on any incissions.

    He will have to have an angioplastiese to open his heart valuve and insert the stent, which after he will have to be sandbagged, pressure on the incission. He'll have to be very careful not to open the wound. Crawling around in the back of a van could displace the stent. That is why he needs this camper so he can recover from all the surgeries he has to have.

    Ranger was in on the developement of what today is called Rainbow, way back in the beginning. He was also involved in every Haight Street Fair/Concert or what have you for 40 yrs and did trade shows to present day.

    He is an Icon of our era and is to be honored as such. It is unfitting for him to be in this situation and we must strive to get him in this Camper. It's the least we can do for him, he did so much for all of us.

    Good Morning All,
    It's a chilly morning here on the farm but the sky is blue and crisp. The sun is shinning with all it's winter magesty set against the golden glow of the sleeping funa flora with patches of green dotting the landscape from the giant evergreens looming like caretakers of the earth. They seem to be standing gaurd while the earth sleeps.

    The Rooster crows, greeting the morning sun, as the farm awakens and the donkey trumpets his mighty call of all clear in the barnyard. The birds dance merrily as they scratch around in the fallen leaves to uncover the smorgishborg nature has provided as their sustenence.

    All is at peace and in harmony with nature. As I align myself with the peaceful flow of the universe I find myself intertwinging with the sceam of creation and drink in the experience of understanding that there is a balance and purpose for all things and we as Human Beings are at the center of it all.

    We as a collective can change whatever we want or need to change. In Unity we are pure energy, if focused properly we could move any obstical that lay before us. It's up to us as Human Beings to do our part in what is necessary make the changes needed to bring peace and harmony forward and uitlize it in our lives.

    Loving one another more is the only path that will get us to our destination. When Love is formost in our hearts is when change will occure. We will see through new eyes and our vision will be clear.

    See clearly with Love

    Hi Cakes,

    I'm happening once again. I keep worrying about how Chris is doing. I need to send him another e-mail. See what's up.

    Haven't heard from Ranger. Have you? Since last week? I've e-mailed twice.

    Shall I call you right now? Mary Jo has made a Ranger offer!

    It's 3:30 quiet and black. The stars are shining beautifully. 46 degrees, clear, and still.

    Kenny

    Psychic always. You're P.M.ing to me while I'm posting to you. Curiouser and curiouser. Psychic. Maybe it's the L.S.Crazy from all those years ago. The hits just keep on coming. 40-years-ago.

    It's been sunny - in the mid-50's. Hardly any chemtrails yesterday. Forecast calls for some rain in the PM throughout the weekend. That'll be a good test for my roof-repair job.
